I have researched SmartLipo and I truly want to do this. I have lost and kept off 60lbs for over 5 years and even had a baby during this time. I am a size 14, 5ft1 and I am just stuck (and have been for a long time) and ready for a change. My problem areas are my double chin, back flanks and upper thighs. I am just curious how much reduction is safely possible. Can anyone advise?

Answer: Not a method of weight loss You should reach your ideal stable weight first before proceeding with any cosmetic surgical body contouring procedure. Being within a normal BMI range dramatically improves your surgical outcome and is safer for you as well. Smartlipo is not a form of weight loss. It is only for localized fat deposits that you weren't able to get rid of through exercise and diet alone.

Answer: Any form of lipo not for weight loss but contouring Please remember as others have rightfully said, any form of lipo is about targeting disproportionate stubborn areas of fat and not for losing weight. This reproportioning and contouring is the surgeons responsibility. The weight loss is yours. But if you mean how much fat can be removed with liposuction surgery safely at one time it has been defined as 5 liters whether done under local tumescent or general anesthesia. This equates to about 12 pounds of pure fat. But remember also that a perfect result natural looking result is so should not be measured by how much fat was removed but by how great looking the result is.
